Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 26th May 2019. Coppery amber with shallow foam and scant lacing. Mildly malty aroma. Wholesome blend of malts, cooked veg and hazelnut in-mouth, and a nutty malt finish. Fairly well-bodied with an engaging texture.

Malty, fruity taste with caramel, apricots, orange peel, toast and a balanced bitterness. Medium body, with a slight sweetness. Tasty and well balanced bitter. Quite nice.

Like blackhaddock, I too, had a cask half pint of this sat outside the Salopian in the sunshine, but sadly on another day. Pours a golden amber, small white head. Lightly sweet aroma. Taste presents lightly sweet malts, and soft toffee. Decent bitter as bitters go.

Cask half-pint sat outside the Salopian Bar (Shrewsbury) in the afternoon sun on 19th July 2017. Golden pour, white topping. Refreshing enough with a decent malt/hop mix, semi-sweet with a fruity and slightly citrusy finish.
